Image scripts

Here is a set of scripts to create a archlinux image for uConsole(CM3/CM4/CM4S) or whatever.

How to use the scripts

• Install requirements.
  • For ArchLinux: pacman -Sy --needed qemu-user-static qemu-user-static-binfmt arch-install-scripts parted dosfstools e2fsprogs
• Review the settings in settings.env. Make changes if you want.
• Build the OS image by running build-image.sh with root privilege.

Things to do after first boot

• Initialize pacman key database
  • pacman-key --init && pacman-key --populate archlinux archlinuxarm
• Resize the rootfs partition
  • Detail not covered here. You can use fdisk to resize the partition, and use resize2fs to actually expand the partition.
• Setup the internet connection
  1. Enable NetworkManager systemd enable --now NetworkManager
  2. Connect to WiFi nmcli device wifi connect [SSID] password [password]

About default configuration

• Read PACSTRAP_PACKAGES in settings.env to learn included packages.
• Read INSTALL_STATIC_FILES in settings.env to learn preloaded config files.
• The new privileged user is ucon, with password ucon. You'll change it right?
